the design of emptiness

The office is preoccupied with the design of space -- with shaping emptiness rather than mass, void as opposed to solid, the immaterial over the material, with treating empty, enveloping, concave, subjective volume -rather than convex objective form- as the fundamental medium of design. Each project is a spatial sculpture in which clearly delineated intersecting voids are the primary focus of the design, following from a conviction that essence of architecture –from which the aesthetic, utilitarian, emotional, and poetic qualities of architecture all ultimately derive- is space.
